Pro-Palestinian activists have petitioned a French court to block an Israeli real estate fair scheduled for Paris that markets properties in Israeli settlements across the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, Middle East Eye reported.
The group argues the fair promotes illegal settlement activity. The case represents an escalating legal challenge to Israeli settlement marketing in Europe, where several countries and institutions have moved to restrict promotion of West Bank settlement products and services.
